FAQ's

UltraStream FAQ's

  • Will it filter bacteria and viruses?

    Yes. Our latest version, the Mk IV, has integrated Virus Guardian technology which has NSF approval for up to 99% removal of viruses, bacteria and cysts.

  • How much water can I run and keep the hydrogen level high?

    Ideally, the highest H2 level is with your first glass.

  • Will the hydrogen level be the same for the life of the filter?

    No. It will reduce over the life of the filter. This is related:
    a) to the suitability of your water in terms of TDS and pH
    b) the intervals between uses.

    Ideally you should attempt to get a glass of water, wait up to an hour, then repeat. This aligns with most people’s drinking habits and give the elemental magnesium time to regenerate more H2.

  • How does the H2 get made inside the UltraStream and how much can I expect to get?

    The molecular hydrogen (H2) is generated by a reaction between the elemental magnesium of the O-Dobi media and water.
    H2 is being generated while the Ultrastream is at rest, and accumulating to its maximum even before you pour a glass. This means that the water (approx.250ml) inside the UltraStream is hydrogen-enriched and just waiting for you to pour. As new water enters the UltraStream the process of enrichment begins again.

    We’ve measured output up to 1.2ppm here at Alkaway but we have to say that it always depends on the suitability of your source water, so we can’t promise a particular number. We have found that softer (more acidic) waters generate more H2 than more alkaline input waters.

    H2 production will slowly reduce over the life of your filter as calcium accretes on the O-Dobi media. That’s one reason we use KDF media. As well as removing heavy metals and neutralising bacteria, KDF also neutralises excess hardness in input water – before the water reaches the O-Dobi.

  • What about my Stainless Steel Sleeve on my UltraStream?

    In our design of the Ultrastream, we wanted to, where possible, reduce the waste of materials. We really wanted the stainless steel (SS) sleeve for strength and cleanliness but didn’t want to throw it away with each filter change, so we had our engineers create a removable sleeve.

    When you change over to a new filter, (new replacement filters are supplied without a SS sleeve) you will need to put the old filter sleeve onto the new filter.  Removing the stainless steel sleeve video

  • What can I expect from early effects of Drinking UltraStream Water?

    Everyone has a different reaction to UltraStream water. It is not just ultra pure: it is also mineralised, alkaline, energised and rich in molecular hydrogen, so your body will acknowledge that there’s something happening in its hydration effect.

    We’ve seen many reactions: immediate pain relief, greater urination, energy surges, a thirst for more, the feeling of silken water, detox symptoms and more. It’s good to take a note of them so you can see how the symptoms play out longer term.

    An important point to keep in mind is that the most powerful water from your UltraStream will be the first glass. If you pour more than one glass, the H2 effect will lessen.

  • What is the idea of the Swiveling Base?

    The base of the UltraStream aligns with the ON/OFF lever of the inlet tap.

    Originally, our design concept was that you could alter flow rate by swivelling the UltraStream (It works – try it out!) which in turn made the base swivel.

    However we found that it also caused some confusion. Users would swivel the UltraStream and their flow rate would change. They did not understand that this would happen and so we got a phone call about it.

    Have a play with this function to familiarize yourself with it and make your own decision on whether you want to use it.

  • Do you need a power outlet to run the UltraStream undersink and benchtop water filters?
    No, the UltraStream benchtop and undersink filters do not require any electricity or power supply.
  • Do I need the H2 tablets?

    The UltraStream generates Molecular Hydrogen in the water without tablets.
    AlkaWay Hydrogen Tablets. What’s it all about?However if you want to gain the many benefits of molecular hydrogen, without investing in an UltraStream, we recommend the AlkaWay hydrogen tablets.

  • I’m a renter. I would like to drink water that is alive and full of energy. What do you recommend?

    For renters, we recommend the UltraStream benchtop unit. This can be fitted to most household taps/faucets and when you decide to move, it can be easily uninstalled.

    Alternatively, a cheaper option is our AlkaWay alkaline water filter jug or you can look at our products here:

  • I’m looking for a filter that filters fluoride?

    Our UltraStream undersink and benchtop units use the world’s best activated alumina media, removing 78% of Fluoride throughout the life of the filter. Review or download our lab test results.Supercharged Water? Alkaway Water!

  • How much fluoride does the UltraStream remove?

    Through lengthy research and development, the UltraStream uses the world’s best-activated alumina media, removing 78% of Fluoride throughout the life of the filter.
    Review or download our lab test results.

    Up to 95% of Fluoride can be removed when the UltraStream is installed with an additional Fluoride Pre-filter.

  • The Faucet attachment and why some people have problems

    Attaching your UltraStream to your kitchen faucet is, in 95% of cases, easy.

    1. Remove the existing ‘bubbler’ from your tap
    2. Attach the included diverter to your tap.
    Attach the diverter’s hose to your UltraStream.
    Benchtop Installation Video

    However…

    Some newer faucets do not fit the thread of the diverter. In this case you have a set of adaptors that fit between the tap and the diverter.
    The standard adaptor kit that is included with the UltraStream will fit most kitchen sinks

    The flow diverter and adaptors are designed to fit taps with male and female threads with a diameter of 21 – 23 mm. Four adaptors are included with every new benchtop UltraStream to connect the flow diverter to different sized taps. If your flow diverter is leaking only a small amount, you can try applying Teflon tape to the thread of the adaptor ring.

    If none of the provided adaptor rings fit your tap, we have the following solutions:how to measure aerator.jpg?compress=true&quality=80&w=360&dpr=1

    • We have some specially sized adaptors. To help us find the right adaptor for you, we need to see a photo with an accurate measurement of your tap or aerator (this is the part that screws off from the end of your kitchen tap).
    • You could install the UltraStream under the sink using our Undersink Kit.
    • A Jubilee Fitting (see photo) is a rubber fitting that can go over your faucet and secured to the tap with a metal clamp

    • You could change your kitchen tap.
    • You could use the UltraStream in your bathroom or laundry.
  • Can you drink this water just like tap water… regularly or only a few litres a day?

    Yes, you can drink UltraStream water as you would drink regular tap water.
    We have observed that the amount of water people can drink once they install their UltraStream will increase because it seems to not bloat people as many ordinary tap waters do. We aim for 8 250ml glasses per day.

    Try to drink it as close to the moment it leaves the UltraStream for maximum molecular hydrogen.

  • What happens if I run hot water through my UltraStream?

    This is not a problem although we wouldn’t recommend it on a regular basis. The UltraStream was not made to put hot water through it. However…

    When hot water runs through the filtration media in a cheaper filter it creates tunnels. When tunnels are created the water can run through without contact with the media which means it doesn’t get filtered anymore.

    We designed the UltraStream to make sure that hot water wasn’t able to tunnel. We use a  specially designed ‘spreader’ that forces the water to spread evenly which means that these tunnels just can’t happen. The negative side of any hot water intrusion is that hot water will ‘liberate’ some chlorine already accumulated so you’ll get high chlorine output while the hot water is passing through.

  • Why has the water slowed or stopped coming out of my UltraStream?

    It is likely you have accidentally turned off the water flow at the blue and white tap on the bottom of the UltraStream.

    To check to see if this is the problem:

    1. Turn your UltraStream on it’s side.
    2. On the bottom you will see a base plate with two holes.
    3. Put your fingers into these holes and pull the base plate off.
    4. Once you have done this you will see a blue and white tap.
    5. You can adjust this tap to any water flow you require:
      – The flow is on full when the tap is inline with the incoming hose.
      – The flow is off when the tap is 90 degrees from the incoming hose.
      You may need to turn it off and on if it doesn’t work straight away.

    OR the input hose feeding water into your UltraStream has become kinked. Follow the above instruction to check if the hose is kinked inside the base.

    OR if the UltraStream is installed under the sink you may have inadvertently pushed the Grey JG Converter in too far.

    In this case, please do the following as soon a possible:

    1. Turn off the cold water connector under the sink.
    2. Use the ‘John Guest’ spanner and take out the Grey ‘John Guest’ Converter on the top of the UltraStream. Check to see if you have the clear plastic tubing on the stem.
    3. Replace it with the spout.
    4. Put water through the UltraStream by turning the cold water connector back on (make sure you have the UltraStream on the sink of have a bucket for the water to flow into)
    5. If the water starts to flow again don’t reinsert the old Grey ‘John Guest’ Converter.
    6. Phone AlkaWay for a new Grey ‘John Guest’ Converter to replace your old one.

    OR if the above doesn’t work then it may have blocked up prematurely due to a municipal pipe flush which creates a lot of sediment in the water, or you may be overdue for a new replacement filter.

  • Why does the UltraStream spurt or splutter when I first use it in the morning?

    This is NOT air, it is the Molecular Hydrogen which is a gas.

    The spurting happens because Molecular Hydrogen has built up in the UltraStream overnight and/or when it hasn’t been used for a while.

    The first water that comes out of the UltraStream is the best as it will have the most of this anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory quality.

    If you want to get the most Molecular Hydrogen from your water drink it fresh, straight from the UltraStream.

    It is like an orange; when an orange comes fresh off the tree and it is cut in half, it has its highest anti-oxidant quality.  Leave the orange just sitting open and the anti-oxidants leave the orange.

    Put the orange in a sealed container in the refrigerator and the anti-oxidants will last much longer.

    Like an orange, if you can’t drink your UltraStream right away, store it in a sealed, preferable glass or steel container, and if possible, in the refrigerator.

    • You could change your kitchen tap.
    • You could use the UltraStream in your bathroom or laundry.
  • Do you have a vegan filter that will filter out fluoride?

    Yes, the UltraStream is vegan, the fluoride reduction media in the UltraStream is not bone char.

  • How exactly is Hydrogen generated by the UltraStream?

    The special magnesium O-Dobi beads react with two water moclues to produces magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

    Mg ＋ 2H2O  →   Mg(OH)2 ＋ H2

    The Hydrogen gas isn’t very water soluble so it’s a good idea to drink the water quick to get the maximum amount of molecular hydrogen.

    KEY
    Mg = Magnesium Metal
    H2O = Water
    Mg(OH)2 = Magnesium Hydroxide (often called Milk of Magnesia)
    H2 = molecular hydrogen (Hydrogen Gas)
    H = Atomic Hydrogen (Active Hydrogen)

  • How long is the AlkaWay UltraStream warranty?

    The warranty for the UltraStream is 3 years (Conditions Apply) for parts and labor under normal use. Warranty does NOT cover filters as there are too many variables in the source water.

  • How much UltraStream water should I drink?

    This depends on a number of variables. As a general guide for medium weight people is to drink about 1/3 of your body weight in ounces a day. So if you weigh 150 lbs (68 kgs), you should drink roughly 50 fluid oz (1.47 Liters) of water. If you work out, if it’s hot and you’re sweating more, if you fly, if you have a soda/coffee/tea, then you can choose to drink more. All of those things speed up the elimination of water and therefore, we need more.

  • Will my UltraStream be out of date in a year or so?

    Unlike electric water ionizers, the UltraStream’s filter cartridge actually contains the media that ionizes, alkalizes and infuses the water with molecular hydrogen. So when you change a filter, you get the brand new version, which will incorporate any updated technology we have implemented. That’s why we call it an ‘eternal’ system.

  • Are there any precautions before drinking UltraStream water?

    The only consideration is for those taking pharmaceutical medicine or suffering from kidney disease. We recommend you consult with your doctor.

    UltraStream water may be delivered to the cells more efficiently than tap or bottled, so we recommend not taking any medications with it. We suggest you stop drinking 30 minutes prior to taking the medication and then waiting until at least 30 minutes after.
    We have no evidence of adverse results, but give this advice for legal purposes only.

  • What other contaminants does the UltraStream remove?

    Heavy metals including mercury, lead, aluminium and copper, as well as bacteria, pesticides, algae and fungi. For more details, Review or download laboratory test results.

  • Why is molecular Hydrogen (H2) so important?

    It is a selective antioxidant. It targets and neutralizes the harmful, cytotoxic free radicals, such as hydroxyl radicals.

    Scientific studies have concluded that Hydrogen may help and prevent a range of diseases and acts as an inflammatory.
  • What are the major reasons why people love the UltraStream Water Filter?
    • It helps people feel better, perform better and enjoy a healthier life.
    • It is easy to install, operate and replace the filter.
    • It is affordable, benchtop costing 75 cents/gallon for the first year and then down to 31 cents/gallon on your 12 month filter change (benchtop version).
  • How well does the UltraStream improve pH?

    Our independent laboratory tests used a water sample that was a ‘witches brew’ of pesticides, volatile organics, fluoride, chlorine, heavy metals, and minerals. The UltraStream changed an input pH of 7 to an output pH 9 in these tests. We’ve pushed the lab much farther than the normal lab tests by asking for performance statistics beyond the normal lifespan of the filter. Most water filter tests are taken from the first water out of the filter. Most do not test for a possible reduction in performance as the filter is continued in service.

    Review or download the UltraStream Test results

    UltraStream’s pH performance is directly related to the input water. Tap water is the only regulated water in the US and is around pH 7.0 for most homes. The UltraStream performs wonderfully in this environment and will consistently produce water ranging from pH 8.0 – 9.0. Most commonly, the water starts at pH 9.0 at installation, and by the time the filter needs to be replaced, it measures closer to pH 8.0. The bottom line: more acidic input water will have a lower pH, more alkaline input water will have a higher pH but both may be adjusted using the flow control at the bottom of the UltraStream.

    There are a couple of other advantages as well. In hard water with excessive levels of alkaline minerals (like an overabundance of calcium), the UltraStream uses a special patented media that alters the form of the calcium and prevents it from clogging the filter. It also re-infuses input water with healthier levels and proportions of alkaline minerals, as well as ionizing the water.
    We’ve used our two decades of water filter experience to ensure this lasts the life of the filter, so you have excellent purity and performance from start to finish.

    Those who utilize well water should also expect great performance. Very often, well water starts a bit above 7.0 and this can also translate to higher pH outputs from the UltraStream as well. A sediment pre-filter will likely be required for well water.

  • Can I use UltraStream if I have a whole house water softener?

    Yes, unlike electric water ionizers, the UltraStream will also work well with a water softener.

    Softened water isn’t something you want to drink or cook with, so the UltraStream is a great solution for consumption when you need to maintain soft water for appliance life and showering.

  • Can I connect the UltraStream to existing Reverse Osmosis?

    Yes, the UltraStream can be connected in series with a reverse osmosis (RO) system with the vented faucet we can supply. It will add powerful alkalizing and ionizing abilities to your acidic, mineral-depleting RO water.

    You could also remove the RO system completely and replace it with the UltraStream.

  • Can I adjust the pH of the UltraStream water?

    All of the attributes of UltraStream water can be controlled by flow rate. The faster the water flows through, the less hydrogen potent it is. We recommend a flow rate of around 0.26 GPM for the best performance. You can easily adjust the flow of the UltraStream by adjusting a small tap underneath the base of the UltraStream.  You can then just turn on the kitchen tap and the UltraStream regulates the flow.

  • Can the UltraStream remove Fluoride?

    Yes. Through lengthy research and development, the UltraStream uses the world’s best-activated alumina media, removing 78% of Fluoride throughout the life of the filter. Review or download our lab test results.

    Up to 95% of Fluoride can be removed when the UltraStream is installed with an additional Fluoride Pre-filter.

  • How long will the UltraStream filter last?

    An UltraStream filter will last 12 months – depending, as always, on source water conditions and use. Our 12-month recommendation is based on a family of 4, who use about 2.1 gallons per day (8 glasses / 65 fluid oz each) for drinking and cooking.

    If you use less, your filter may last longer. More – and you’ll need to replace sooner.

    Filter life always depends on the quality of the input water. The more unwanted stuff in the water, the harder the UltraStream has to work. For the vast majority of users, 12 months of protection and performance is no problem.

    When the filter is replaced (a simple 3-minute job) your UltraStream returns to full filtration, pH, hydrogen and antioxidant power.

Installation

  • Why do I need long hoses on my undersink? Can’t I just cut them short?

    The value in keeping long hoses comes when you are down on your knees replacing your Ultrastream filter. With long hoses, it’s easy because you can remove the whole unit and perform the change on the bench above. With short hoses, you have to reach into the undersink space to remove hoses. Not fun.

  • What about my Stainless Steel Sleeve on my UltraStream?

    In our design of the Ultrastream, we wanted to, where possible, reduce the waste of materials. We really wanted the stainless steel (SS) sleeve for strength and cleanliness but didn’t want to throw it away with each filter change, so we had our engineers create a removable sleeve.

    When you change over to a new filter, (new replacement filters are supplied without a SS sleeve) you will need to put the old filter sleeve onto the new filter.  Removing the stainless steel sleeve video

    Have a play with this function to familiarize yourself with it and make your own decision on whether you want to use it.

  • What is the purpose of the tap under the UltraStream?

    The blue tap under the UltraStream is where we connect the inlet hose. The tap also controls the flow into the UltraStream, which, in turn, affects the output alkalinity of the water. When you install your UltraStream, adjust the tap until you have around 1 litre of water output per minute.

    To get to the tap you’ll need to remove the circular black base. This base grips the kitchen surface. It easily clips in and out.

  • How do the Quickfit fittings work on the UltraStream?

    John Guest Quickfittings are a patented, simple method of attaching hoses, capable of withstanding mains pressure.

    To make a connection the tube is simply pushed in (hard) by hand. The unique patented John Guest collet locking system then holds the tube firmly in place without deforming it or restricting flow.
    To remove it, push the collet around the hose in as you pull the hose out.

  • The Faucet attachment and why some people have problems

    Attaching your UltraStream to your kitchen faucet is, in 95% of cases, easy.

  • How do I install the UltraStream?

    There are 2 ways to install the UltraStream.
    1. Benchtop – For this connection to work, the faucet has to be “normal”. Normal means the tap doesn’t convert to a shower spray, pull out or have a non-standard head. You’ll utilize a diverter valve to control the water flow. When the slider of the diverter valve is pushed one way, it will flow from the tap as normal. When you push it the other way, the water will be sent to the UltraStream.

    Benchtop Installation Video

    2. Undersink – For those who either have an upgraded faucet or who just don’t want the attention-grabbing UltraStream on the counter, we have an undersink kit option that includes a separate dedicated faucet with all the connecting pieces. Installation doesn’t require a plumber, but if you’d feel more comfortable using one, go ahead. We have sourced the specially designed vented faucet from the best water filter engineer in the US, so there’s no need to worry about lead. Please note that we cannot be responsible for the efficacy of your undersink installation.

    IMPORTANT: Do not try to install the UltraStream under the sink without our special vented faucet! Voids any warranty.

  1. Michael (store manager) –

    I have been using Alkaline water since I purchased the Alphion some 10 years ago now and for the last 6 months have been using the Ultrastream and I have to say that I would not use any other kind of water for drinking, we use it for cooking and to boil the jug for coffee and tea and for just drinking a nice refreshing glass of water, nothing like it.

  2. John C (store manager) –

    I purchased an ultrastream Dec 2016, the water’s great, my family and I feel fantastic and we drink it every day. When drinking town water, we felt bloated after drinking it. The ultrastream water is clean, fresh, clear tasting water in every glass. Cheers

  3. Jodie S. (verified owner) –

    We love out Alkaway Benchtop UltraStream. Easily ordered via their website. Super fast delivery, with tracking all the way. Simple installation, made even easier by watching their ‘how to video’s”. Water tastes beautiful. Thanks Alkaway 🙂

    Fantastic filter, water tastes great too! Was a bit tricky to adjust the flow rate with the base plate on, because if you turned the unit it changed the flow rate. So I left the plate off and got it right. Works great!!

    Our Ultrastream Benchtop arrived very quickly and was very easy for me to set up and get working. We are enjoying our lovely fresh water and I find I am starting to replace some of my tea and coffees with our ‘magic water’ as we call it.

    As a fellow water snob, it’s great. There’s not much to say.. great taste, clean as ever, I drink it all day every day. Simpler the better if you ask me, which is exactly what this thing exudes. But don’t get me wrong, there is no compromise on effectiveness and quality. If my name was government I’d give everyone one of these. Serious.

    Extremely helpful, fast and friendly service. Love the Ultra stream! Just a thought though, maybe its wiser to ask people for a photo/measurement of their taps aerator prior to sending the ultrastream benchtop? That way you send the correct divertor to match, and dont need to send them spare divertors (which cost you money), then theres also no delays re the customer using their product.

    The filter seems to work fine, although getting the pH up seems to have limits and is tedious to control flow. We are in Sydney with the supply water being very good anyway and is at 7.6 pH. After the filter it reaches 9.0, we needed around 9.5 to 10, mainly for acidity control, which unfortunately, isn’t happening, or atleast isn’t quite as well managed as it was using a plate machine, which we were using at pH 9.5. Waiting to hear of any suggestions from Alka way.

    • Ian –

      Hey Rajan, with Sydney water you should be getting 9.5pH. However there is a difference between the pH from an electrolysis system and the UltraStream.

      The Ultrastream has almost half a kilo of alkaline minerals in it. These infuse into your water making it a buffered pH – one that WILL deliver alkaline minerals to your alkaline buffer. An electrolysis system doe snot. It adds no alkaline minerals to the water that are not already there, so the actual pH is created by electrolysis and is what is called an < unbuffered pH .. This means it has very little power to neutralise acidity. This will assist. https://alkaway.com/learning-article/alkaline-mineral-water-are-you-getting-the-real-thing/

  21. Aldin Ortinez (verified owner) –

    The difference in the quality of water from the UltraStream compared to tap water is astounding. I wouldn’t settle for anything less from now on. I wish nothing but the best for Ian and his team at AlkaWay, in threading the path to healthier drinking water and beyond.

    it was hard to find the right tap to connect to

  23. Carla (verified owner) –

    My tap is too small for the fittings provided so I can’t use it unfortunately

    • Ian –

      Carla, Please give us a call!

      it IS a problem. Every new faucet released (all from China) seems to have a new thread! We supply a range of adapters that fit (we estimate) 95% of faucets and we have imported a range of special faucet adapters for people who have the misfortune to buy a new ‘naughty’faucet with non-standard thread size or access.

      We do take it very seriously and it’s something all water filter vendors share.

    I love it! Water is an essential daily resource needed for life. Why not drink the best and purest water you can get. I highly recommend the Alkaway Ultrastream to everyone. I also purchased the extra fluoride filter. The water is beautiful, I cook with it, drink it cold & in cups of tea. Good stuff!

    I am very pleased with the purchase of the alkaway water filter, since drinking this water I have noticed my energy levels have increased, my complexion looks smoother and healthier, and I have piece of mind that my family is drinking clean energized water that is good for their bodies, and we didn’t have to wait long to drink this amazing water, delivery was very prompt.
    Thank you Alkaway team for making a water ioniser that is truly affordable.

    I received my unit and it was everything that you said it would be, at first it didn’t seem to work but when I we adjusted the valve underneath and the water flowed . I am very happy with the beautiful water that I am drinking .

  32. Tim Robb (verified owner) –

    Makes the town water here in the Midwest drinkable, plus flowing at a steady 9.5ph. Great product compared to a Kangen machine or similar. Happy days

    Very happy with this unit . Was sceptical at first but after plunging what seems like a small fortune into this product I am happy to say that it was worth every penny . I was spending a few dollars per day on high quality bottle water and guess what! My tap water is now the best water I have ever tasted. Did a pH test with original tap water expensive bottled water and filtered tap water . My water before filter was almost acidic it was boarder line after running it through the filter it went to about a 9.5 on the scale which is really good . The bottled expensive water was about a 8. When you drink this filtered water you can really tell the difference, drinking 2L of water per day is no longer a chore. Trust me. Just buy it. PS I am not a paid advertising and I didn’t get anything to write this review. (Although I would like some freebies lol)

    We recently ordered the Benchtop Ultrastream and wow have we been impressed! I had previously been looking at the $4000 water filtration systems, and had been putting off purchasing a filter because it was such an expense. I had been drinking boxed filtered water for a long time thinking it was basically the same thing. Once the COVID – 19 virus hit, I couldn’t find boxed water anywhere….so started to research affordable alternatives, which led me to the Ultrastream. It was so well researched and there was so much information available I had to try it. Both my partner and I love the water- it tastes better than the natural stream water I grew up on! Also I have been having really bad stomach and skin issues over the last few years which no natural remedy has seemed to fix. We tested the PH of the box water when the kit arrived and were shocked to find it was only a 6. I do believe this was the problem as after a few days on the new water, my constantly upset stomach and bloating went away. Two weeks later my skin issues have all cleared up and I have the most energy I have had in a long time! Thankyou SO much for bringing an affordable and effective product to market – it has really positively impacted my health and hence my life!

    Water quality and make is good . Water inlet could have had better designed, easy plug and remove whenever its required , it is bit inconvenient to use tap while having inlet pipe hanging.

    my last water filter was a kangen water $4000 machine and after using the UltraStream as a replacement, i can say this water filter seems to compare pretty well with the kangen, taste good and clean and the whole house is enjoying it.
